Optimization often causes subtle bugs from anything which uses undefined values -- things like pointing to a stack variable which went out of scope, overrunning the end of an array, etc. The crash can happen quite a distance from whatever caused it -- the corruption could've happened long ago. Code which happens to "just work" unoptimized may run far differently when the compiler starts removing in-between steps and squeezes out the empty spaces, letting things start bumping into each other.
So I'd start by logging the values fed into that function. They're probably getting corrupted somewhere. Then follow it backwards from there until you find out where the corruption is happening.
